@LoisLois just read everyone’s comments. Agree with them all.

Though i didn’t get to miss the Chemo 1st surgery 2nd then the Rads.Looking back 3 years now the radiation was the easiest part. Did everything i was told to do plus took suggestions from here

My funny was my Son decided he was taking me to hospital on the day of surgery. I must not have retained a small detail about the special Dye. at 7 am in the morning a red faced son decided he couldn’t sit with me while i was going to so exposed. He rang his aunt to come take over for that part.
